Subject: proc: remove pathetic ->deleted WARN_ON
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=578c8183c116e623d53b05d4c79762d053c7090f;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

proc: remove pathetic ->deleted WARN_ON

WARN_ON(de && de->deleted); is sooo unreliable. Why?

proc_lookup				remove_proc_entry
===========				=================
lock_kernel();
spin_lock(&proc_subdir_lock);
[find proc entry]
spin_unlock(&proc_subdir_lock);
					spin_lock(&proc_subdir_lock);
					[find proc entry]

proc_get_inode
==============
WARN_ON(de && de->deleted);			...

					if (!atomic_read(&de->count))
						free_proc_entry(de);
					else
						de->deleted = 1;

So, if you have some strange oops [1], and doesn't see this WARN_ON it means
nothing.

[1] try_module_get() of module which doesn't exist, two lines below
    should suffice, or not?
